Painting Pumpkins

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: carsyn, dustyn, Fall

We had so much fun painting pumpkins this other day. The boys just loved it. It was much more fun and easier then trying to carve pumpkins with them.

Painting Pumpkins with kids

We get to paint the pumpkins over again because I left them out to dry and it decided to rain. So all of the paint washed off. Opps! Oh well twice the fun. Carsyn LOVED it. He would put his hand in the paint then we would tell him to paint the pumpkin and he would. It was so cute. That top right picture of him is his excited face. He saw Dudley.
